Recap and update

For the record I now have my laptop up and running again. Now all I have to do is get internet at home again (my wifi network I was using is no longer available)...

I didn't get out on Tuesday like I'd planned. She wanted to have a night for herself, and suggested Thursday as an alternative. That was fine with me.

We originally made plans to go to Buffalo Wild Wings at Cascade Station to watch the Blazer game, but then she changed her mind and we met at The Rock Pizza and Brew Pub, near downtown Vancouver. I'd never been there before. It was a great atmosphere, but the pizza left a lot to be desired. I know good pizza....trust me!

We weren't alone for this excursion, as she had brought her roommate along, as well as met her dad and stepmom there. I'd met her roomie before, but this was my first time meeting her family and I have to say they were awesome. Her dad was funny, and very generous. Before I even had time to find out what my split on the bill was, he snatched the whole ticket up and paid for all of us. THEN he invited us all back to their house to finish watching the Blazer game (which was why we were going out to begin with) as well as to have some more drinks.

We got a chance to chat a bit at the house during time-outs and quarter breaks, and then the older sister arrived. I'd never met her before either, but she was very nice, and seemed genuinely happy to meet me. She also said something about having heard so much about me, which makes me wonder if there'd been some story telling involved.

The night ended and we said our goodbyes in the driveway. I don't know if we're on the same level, but I was kinda hoping for a hug but didn't get one, and wonder if it's in the cards or not, but I'm not gonna give up just yet.

I did buy her a Christmas gift... nothing expensive but hopefully something that will be appreciated and maybe help me figure out what direction things are heading in.

If you have any feedback, as always feel free to leave it.

Merry Christmas to you all!
